Allow upload of resources (assignments/quizzes/notes)

[kohlhase]

Currently, I use the KWARC web server for posting resources (assignments/quizzes/notes), but I think they should be hosted by PantaRhei. Here is the functionality I want: for earch course

• a resources directory where the instructor and the TAs can upload documents, movies, ... there should be some way to list the contents.
• a resources page that can be edited by the instructor and the TAs, this will have links to the resources I guess.
• it should be possible to upload to this page via HTTP (PUT I guess) for the instructor and TAs.
  I would be very grateful, if I could upgrade my workflow there.

I have found a way of doing this. Here there is what I have so far by combining some public modules:

1. the Instructor and the TAs can use Filtered HTML to edit the Resources field in Course Description ( https://panta.kwarc.info/node/526 ) - this page can be easily replaced.
2. they can link any string in the Resources field with a file in their folder on the server. When they click on Link, they are given the option to Browse Server
3. here, they can Upload files, Delete their uploaded files, or Insert them for linking. Each user has its own folder on the server.

So, 1) and 2) should be considered the resources page that can be edited by the Instructor and TAs while 3) can be considered the user interface for uploading files.

Am I on the right track by combining these modules and having this user interface for uploading files?
Also, about uploading via HTTP, I suppose you would like an easier way of uploading files, without using the Drupal user interface. Can you please explain how this method is working now for kwarc.info?

this looks very good. Is there also a way of uploading things to the server via http?
